< Jeremia 15 >

1 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachona kama: “Kata dabed ni Musa gi Samuel ema nyalo chungʼ e nyima, to ok anyal weyonegi richogi. Golgi oko e nyima! Wegi gidhi!
Then said the LORD unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, [yet] my mind [could] not [be] toward this people: cast [them] out of my sight, and let them go forth.
2 To ka gipenji ni, ‘Ere kama wanyalo dhiyoe?’ To nyisgi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “‘Mago matho ochomo, tho nonegi; mago ma ligangla ochomo, noneg gi ligangla; to mago ma kech ochomo, kech nonegi; to mago ma twech ochomo, noter e twech.’”
And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the LORD; Such as [are] for death, to death; and such as [are] for the sword, to the sword; and such as [are] for the famine, to the famine; and such as [are] for the captivity, to the captivity.
3 Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “Abiro oro masiche angʼwen mopogore opogore, ma gin ligangla mar nek kod guogi maywayo gi mabor gi winy mafuyo e kor polo gi ondiegi mag bungu mondo okidhgi kendo tiekogi.
And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the LORD: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.
4 Anami pinjeruodhi duto mag piny bed gibuok kuomgi nikech gima Manase wuod Hezekia ruodh Juda notimo e Jerusalem.
And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for [that] which he did in Jerusalem.
5 “Ere ngʼama nokechi, yaye Jerusalem? Ere ngʼama biro ywagi? Ere ngʼama nochungʼ ma penji kaka idhi?”
For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go aside to ask how thou doest?
6 Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “Isedaga. Isiko mana kibaro iweyo yo. Omiyo anaket lweta kuomi kendo tieki; ok anatimni ngʼwono kendo.
Thou hast forsaken me, saith the LORD, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.
7 Anapiedhgi gi odhech pietho e dhorangeye mag dala maduongʼ mar piny. Anakel lit kod kethruok ne joga, nimar gitamore loko yoregi.
And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave [them] of children, I will destroy my people, [since] they return not from their ways.
8 Anami mon ma chwogi otho mag-gi bedo mathoth moloyo kwoyo manie dho nam. E odiechiengʼ tir anakel ngʼama nego mana rowere; kendo apoya nono anakelnegi lit kod bwok maduongʼ.
Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noonday: I have caused [him] to fall upon it suddenly, and terrors upon the city.
9 Miyo man-gi nyithindo abiriyo nobed mool matho. To chiengʼ marienyne nopodhi kapod en odiechiengʼ; wiye nokuodi kendo chunye nochandre. Ananeg jogo motony gi ligangla, e nyim wasikgi,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while [it was] yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the LORD.
10 Wuololo, minwa, angʼo momiyo ne inywola, an ngʼat ma piny ngima piemgo kendo kedogo! Pok aholo ngʼato kata an bende pok ohola, to kata kamano ji duto kwongʼa.
Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; [yet] every one of them doth curse me.
11 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho, “Adier anaresi gi gima omiyo maber; adier anami wasiki sayi, e kinde mag masira kod kinde mag thagruok.
The LORD said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant; verily I will cause the enemy to entreat thee [well] in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
12 “Bende dhano nyalo turo chuma, chuma moa yo nyandwat kata mula?
Shall iron break the northern iron and the steel?
13 “Mwandu magu kod mago ma ukano anachiw mondo yaki, maonge chudo, nikech richo magu duto e pinyu mangima.
Thy substance and thy treasures will I give to the spoil without price, and [that] for all thy sins, even in all thy borders.
14 Anaketu ubed wasumbini ne wasiku e piny ma ok ungʼeyo, nimar mirimba biro moko mach mabiro wangʼou.”
And I will make [thee] to pass with thine enemies into a land [which] thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger, [which] shall burn upon you.
15 In ingʼeyo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; para kendo konya. Chul kuor ne joma sanda. Isenano koda omiyo kik iweya; par kaka osesanda kochaya nikech in.
O LORD, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke.
16 Ka wechegi nobiro, ne achamogi; ne gin morna, kendo ilo mar chunya, nimar iluonga gi nyingi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego.
Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.
17 Ne ok abedo e kanyakla mar jojaro, ne ok atimo nyasi kodgi; to ne abedo kenda nikech lweti ne ni kuoma kendo ne ipongʼa gi mirima.
I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation.
18 Angʼo momiyo rem mara ok rum kendo adhonda lich ma ok nyal thiedhore? Bende inyalo bedona ka aora modwono, mana ka soko motwo?
Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, [which] refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, [and as] waters [that] fail?
19 Emomiyo ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Ka ilokori iweyo richoni, anaduogi mondo itina; ka iwacho weche mowinjore, ma ok manono, to ni inibed ngʼat ma wuoyo e loya. We jogi oduog ira, to in kik idog irgi.
Therefore thus saith the LORD, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, [and] thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them.
20 Anaketi ibed ohinga ne jogi, ohinga moger motegno mar mula; giniked kodi to ok gini loyi, nimar an kodi mondo akonyi kendo resi,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
And I will make thee unto this people a fenced brasen wall: and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee: for I [am] with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the LORD.
21 “Anaresi e lwet joma timbegi mono kendo akonyi e lwet joma ger.”
And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.
